Damn you cancer, Damn you!!!

You have taken so many from my life and are about to do it again.
Damn you cancer, damn you.


I love you woman!!

    Awe, Marie, I LOVE that picture of Renee...so childlike and full of life. Those of us who Renee gathered together must now continue her legacy of love and acceptance, and we must pray that God rewards her with a good death. We are all part of the fold now, Together Strong.
    All my love to you, my friend.

    So sorry to read this post. I really do not know what to say except that I am sorry.
    I am waiting on news about my sweet daughter Chrisit..they found a lump in her breast last week and still we know nothing as whether or not it is cancer....I had breast cancer years ago so naturally I am worried but can only pray that it is not.
    I to will pray for you

    Oh Marie. I am so sorry for this part in your journey. Feeling helpless is so frustrating.
    The picture of Renee is just amazing.

    (The word verification I had to put in was "blesive". Sending blessings to you.)

    Marie I know ... I want to say in Renee's fashion...

    "FUCK YOU CANCER!!!!"

    I am breaking... not only in my heart but my whole body...

    I'm going to try and get inflammatory breast cancer more in the know... so many women don't know about this.

    I know so many others hearts are being torn open right now, this minute.

    Renee is in my heart~
    I love you Marie...

    Oh Marie...I feel the same way. although I have never met Renee in person, the possibility was there and we talked about it. We are only about 250 miles apart.
    I'm sad and a little mad that I didn't push for the wonderful idea to become a reality. Life is so short and there isn't always a 'tomorrow'

    If I won the lottery, I'd host a retreat for us all to get together (all expenses paid) just so we could laugh and play and meet our blog sisters!!
